This study examines one particular component of Russian national identity—the trait of oblomovshchina—and its relationship to geography as presented through the voices of four famous Russian authors in novels written over a span of 150 years. Through the lens of literature, this study addresses the following questions: How is the geography of Russia depicted in novels by Russian authors? How do Russian authors portray oblomovshchina? In what ways do the authors connect oblomovshchina and landscape in their works? How do these depictions change with the passage of time? The literary representation of Russia’s geography, especially in terms of landscape and weather, leaves no doubt that geography is partially culpable for the prevalence of oblomovshchina in many Russian people. The discussion about Russian national identity remains a topic of interest in the post-Soviet Russian Federation, and Russia’s literary voices continue to be involved and thoughtfully contribute to the dialogue. Frontispiece iv Acknowledgments Спасибо большое to my dad for starting me down the Russian path so many years ago. Because of our time in Moscow during middle school, I chose to study Russian in undergrad, which aligned the stars during my semester abroad for the catalyst conversation with my host family that ultimately inspired this thesis. Thank you to my mom for your intuitive understanding of what it takes to accomplish a project like this: hours of undisturbed quiet. You kept me well-stocked with tea and snacks so that I could stay locked in the basement for as long as I needed. I especially appreciate the ultimatum you laid down on my friends to stop inviting me out to do things—they wouldn’t take my ‘no’ for an answer, but they listened to yours! To the myriad family members and friends who feigned interest in Russian literature and my thesis process and let me babble on about it for hours—thank you. Every time I answered the “What’s your thesis about?” question, my argument became clearer. You helped me to write and rewrite this entire paper in my head long before I started typing. Thank you to Sarah Powell for suggesting, before I even wrote my proposal, that Professor John R. Stilgoe might be the perfect advisor for my topic. And a million thanks to Professor Stilgoe, who was indeed the perfect advisor. I am very grateful that you chose to guide me through this process. Mwenzie—you were there at the beginning. In my heart, you are still here at the end. v Table of Contents Frontispiece ........................................................................................................................ iv Acknowledgments................................................................................................................v Background ..........................................................................................................................1 Chapter I.

The West is consistently befuddled by Russia, but Russia is a mystery to her own people as well. Russians seem to be interminably in the midst of an identity crisis. Are they European or Asian? Do they embrace Western ideals or Eastern philosophy? Is religion important to them or is it a relic of their past? Are they vanguards of scientific and industrial progress or are they an underdeveloped, ‘backward’ nation? Do they work hard or are they lazy? Are they stone-faced stoics or an emotive, friendly populace? What exactly is it that makes them Russian? For centuries, Russians have struggled to define themselves and their country with characteristics that they can embrace as wholly Russian rather than reflections of or comparisons to their neighboring cultural powerhouses. In the nineteenth century, this national conversation gained significant traction—a time marked by debates and discussions among scholars, artists, philosophers, and other educated Russians that resulted in the identification and embrace of a unique Russian national landscape, as well as the development of a broadly accepted Russian national identity. Even today, these two topics remain deeply intertwined in the Russian consciousness. The sheer physical size of Russia, the tremendously broad scope of people encompassed therein, and the inherent subjectivity of the topic make it virtually impossible to scientifically and conclusively define THE Russian national identity. As Ely points out, national identity is “a process, the attempt to limit and shape the collective imagination, rather than a fixed phenomenon that can be limited and defined” (14). However, some motifs regularly appear in the ongoing discussion and debate. A common characteristic presented as central to the Russian national identity is a mindset marked by fatalism, “the typical Russian toska (melancholy),” “indolence and sluggishness,” “Russian lethargy” (Olgin 42, Fedotov 15, Ragsdale 125). Baring notes, “The first thing that strikes the English reader of Russian literature, is the unrelieved gloom, the unmitigated pessimism of the characters . Everything is gray, everybody is depressed; the atmosphere is one of hopeless melancholy” (26). A 2009 study interviewing individuals from six neighboring countries of Russia to learn how the ‘typical’ Russian is perceived in those places concludes that “Russians are often depicted as lazy and lacking conscientiousness” (Realo 246). This characteristic is poshlost, a “word for the complacent and the trivial” (Gifford 43). Fedotov’s “pure image of the Russian” is of “profound calm, taciturnity . even apathy . a strain of fatalism . He is likely to come to a grim and tragic end” (Fedotov 6, 11). The stereotypical Russian has an “infinite capacity for sitting still and doing nothing . the vast mountain weight of inertia of the whole Russian people” (Johnston 727, 733). Krizhanich comments that Russians “don’t want to help themselves till they are forced to . they have no pride or spirit or sense of personal worth” (qtd. in Pares 212). This pessimism, inertia, passivity, melancholy, lethargy, etcetera clearly prove difficult to designate in a single word, but is a critical and common component in Russian national identity and sense of self. In the nineteenth century, this motif of national identity appeared in Russian literature in the form of the ‘superfluous man.’ These characters, brought to life by well- known writers such as Alexander Pushkin, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Ivan Turgenev, and other well-known writers are marked by their inability to take action, affect change, or attribute 2 significance to their lives. They are known for “words, words, and no actions,” the best men of Russian society but “condemned to inactivity and—words” (Kropotkin 97-98). One of Dostoevsky’s themes is “men who have been brought so low by the circumstances of their lives that they have not even a conception of there being a possibility to rise above these conditions” (Kropotkin 165). Turgenev too uses his works to show “the sense of lives of deprivation and stoicism in the face of death” of ordinary Russians (Todd 244). In Russia during Turgenev’s life there was “a lot of flinging-oneself-down- on-one’s-bed-without-undressing-and-sinking-into-a-heavy-slumber stuff,” which inspired Turgenev’s creation of Rudin, a man who spends all his energy “in passionate streams of idealistic babble . [he is] a busybody incapable of action” (Nabokov 65-66). The ‘superfluous man,’ exemplified by “Onegin, Pechorin, Beltov and Rudin,” reached a new level of significance with the introduction of Oblomov in 1859 (Harjan 289). Oblomov, like other superfluous men, thinks, dreams, and plans, but proves utterly incapable of actually taking action.

It‘s the sort of story breathlessly reported in pulp novellas and pseudohistories, and more recently, of course, movies. Glass, born in Pennsylvania in 1780, found his place in legend as a member of a fur-trading expedition led by General William Henry Ashley, setting out in 1822 with a force of about a hundred men, including other figures that would become vital in pioneering annals, like Jim Bridger, Jedediah Smith, and John Fitzgerald.

    Nissan, “Post Script: A Hundred Years Since Sholem Aleichem’s Demise” | 116 Post Script: A Hundred Years since Sholem Aleichem’s Demise Ephraim Nissan London The year 2016 was the centennial year of the death of the Yiddish greatest humorist. Figure 1. Sholem Aleichem.1 The Yiddish writer Sholem Aleichem (1859–1916, by his Russian or Ukrainian name in real life, Solomon Naumovich Rabinovich or Sholom Nokhumovich Rabinovich) is easily the best-known Jewish humorist whose characters are Jewish, and the setting of whose works is mostly in a Jewish community. “The musical Fiddler on the Roof, based on his stories about Tevye the Dairyman, was the first commercially successful English-language stage production about Jewish life in Eastern Europe”. “Sholem Aleichem’s first venture into writing was an alphabetic glossary of the epithets used by his stepmother”: these Yiddish 1 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Sholem_Aleichem.jpg International Studies in Humour, 6(1), 2017 116 Nissan, “Post Script: A Hundred Years Since Sholem Aleichem’s Demise” | 117 epithets are colourful, and afforded by the sociolinguistics of the language. “Early critics focused on the cheerfulness of the characters, interpreted as a way of coping with adversity. Later critics saw a tragic side in his writing”.2 “When Twain heard of the writer called ‘the Jewish Mark Twain’, he replied ‘please tell him that I am the American Sholem Aleichem’”. Sholem Aleichem’s “funeral was one of the largest in New York City history, with an estimated 100,000 mourners”. There exists a university named after Sholem Aleichem, in Siberia near China’s border;3 moreover, on the planet Mercury there is a crater named Sholem Aleichem, after the Yiddish writer.4 Lis (1988) is Sholem Aleichem’s “life in pictures”.

The Ethics Of Meaning Abstract This dissertation develops an ethics of meaning. In the first chapter, I offer an account of meaning that comprehends its many varieties—natural, cultural, linguistic, literary, and ethical meaning, for example—by appeal to the structural role meaning plays in the practice of interpretation. In Chapter 2, I develop a distinctive account of the concept of ethical meaning (“meaning” as it’s used in the phrase “the meaning of life”). In Chapter 3, I develop a new account of irony on the basis of the comprehensive-interpretive account of meaning introduced in Chapter 1.

Additionally, they are suggestive of the breadth of texts that students should encounter in the text types required by the Standards. The choices should serve as useful guideposts in helping educators select texts of similar complexity, quality, and range for their own classrooms. They expressly do not represent a partial or complete reading list. The process of text selection was guided by the following criteria: Complexity. Appendix A describes in detail a three-part model of measuring text complexity based on qualitative and quantitative indices of inherent text difficulty balanced with educators’ professional judgment in matching readers and texts in light of particular tasks. In selecting texts to serve as exemplars, the work group began by soliciting contributions from teachers, educational leaders, and researchers who have experience working with students in the grades for which the texts have been selected. These contributors were asked to recommend texts that they or their colleagues have used successfully with students in a given grade band. The work group made final selections based in part on whether qualitative and quantitative measures indicated that the recommended texts were of sufficient complexity for the grade band.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 ABSTRACT I offer an exploration of the work of these three contemporary novelists, focusing on the phenomenon of self-explanation - both in the sense of justifying oneself, and o f seeking to define the nature o f selfhood. I identify three roles in which (and against which) these self-explanations take place; as writers o f comedy, as Jewish writers, and as American writers. Although these roles overlap, I treat them as distinct for the purposes o f structural clarity and contextualise them by locating them in related literary and cultural traditions. I am particularly concerned with the ambivalent attitudes that these writers display towards these roles; with the tensions between - and within - their theory and practice. The thesis is divided into three chapters, framed by an introduction and conclusion.

  • IAU Mercurian Nomenclature
    Appendix 1 IAU Mercurian Nomenclature 1. IAU Nomenclature Rules Since its inception in Brussels in 1919 [1], the International Astronomical Union (IAU) has gradually developed a planetary nomenclature system that has evolved from a purely classically based system into a quite so- phisticated attempt to broaden the cultural base of the names approved for planetary bodies and surface features. At present, name selection is guided by 11 rules (quoted verbatim below) in addition to conventions decided upon by nomenclature task groups for individual Solar System bodies. The general rules are as follows1: 1. Nomenclature is a tool and the first consideration should be to make it simple, clear, and unambiguous. 2. In general, official names will not be given to features whose longest di- mensions are less than 100 metres, although exceptions may be made for smaller features having exceptional scientific interest. 3. The number of names chosen for each body should be kept to a minimum. Features should be named only when they have special scientific inter- est, and when the naming of such features is useful to the scientific and cartographic communities at large. 4. Duplication of the same surface feature name on two or more bodies, and of the same name for satellites and minor planets, is discouraged. Duplications may be allowed when names are especially appropriate and the chances for confusion are very small. 5. Individual names chosen for each body should be expressed in the language of origin. Transliteration for various alphabets should be given, but there will be no translation from one language to another.
